The firm working Stonehill Colliery at Farnworth at the time of the 1877 fire, named in this form by the Liverpool Journal of 27 January 1877. Later mining-history summaries give the firm as Roscoe and Lord and record that the colliery was known as the Dow Mine before it came into their hands; which form is correct has not been settled from the sources reached.
